お不十分である。By the way, a motorcycle is suspended by floating the engine on an elastic bush or the like because the engine generates vibration during driving, but the vibration is still transmitted to the vehicle body. . Further, during driving, the motorcycle travels while cushioning the front wheel and the rear wheel against the unevenness of the road surface to reduce the impact, and the reaction vibration is transmitted to the vehicle body. As described above, in the motorcycle, the vibration is generated in the vehicle body, and the vibration is transmitted to the seat. Foam cushions absorb vibrations and reduce the vibrations experienced by the driver and passengers, but are still inadequate.
